I tend to use this idiom when generating separators:

    $sep = '';
    foreach ($links as $url => $text) {
	$template->set_var('SEP', $sep);
	$template->set_var('URL',$url);
	$template->set_var('TEXT',$text);
	$template->parse('links', 'each_link', true); 
	$sep = '|';
    }

where the template looks like this:

      [
      <!-- BEGIN each_link -->
      {SEP} <a href="{URL}">{TEXT}</a>
      <!-- END each_link -->
      ]
